THIS WEEK'S PICTURE VERSE
for an alphabetical listing of articles
THIS WEEK'S
WORD OF ADMONITION:
A child inherits all the nature of their father. So too, we are heirs of the Divine Nature. No power; no authority; no organization; and no institution can disinherit any one of us.
In this self-evident position, rest securely. Neither fear, nor doubt, nor creed, nor man’s carnal threats can shake your trust.
THIS WEEK’S CHURCH
CATCHPHRASE
“Expression”
1) A cover-up term - used to propagate the ‘theory” of the “universal and local body of Christ.”
“Our church is a visible representation of the Body of Christ, His local expression!”
Total dependence on man
is the fuel that keeps the local institutional church running.
THIS WEEK'S BIBLE VERSE
Let us therefore go forth unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach.
Hebrews 13:13
See the truth come to life!
THIS WEEK'S
"The Pastoral Office"
“The idea of an eldership isn’t especially popular, but it is especially biblical.”
Totally contrary to the hireling’s message, “mandatory attendance” at all of his Sunday performances is just one of the many dictates and pronouncements of men that are never, EVER mentioned anywhere in Scripture.
The Lord’s call stands true today as never before: 2 Corinthians 6:17 - “Come out from among them, and be ye separate, says the Lord;”
Revelation 18:4 – “Come forth, my people, out of her, that you have no fellowship with her sins, and that you receive not of her plagues.”
“Worshiping God” begins when the institutional church machine tells you it begins and ends when the institutional church machine tells
you it ends.
Is this what God envisioned?
